Bronchodilator, Terbutaline, in Asthma
subnormal responses found in patients given interriittent COT ticosteroid therapy by Malone et al. (1970). This finding, together with the satisfactory clinical response in these patients with severe disease, suggests that a therapeutic trial of depot tetracosactrin in a dose of 0-5 mg twice weekly should be considered for the control of disease requiring steroid therapy over a prolonged period...
متن کاملComparative bronchodilator responses to atropine and terbutaline in asthma and chronic bronchitis.
We have compared bronchodilator responses to atropine and terbutaline in 39 chronic bronchitics and 16 stable asthmatics. Fasting subjects were given either 1.05 mg atropine of 5.0 mg terbutaline orally. Pulmonary function was assessed using the peak responses, namely: three 60-minute intervals for terbutaline and three 30-minute intervals for atropine. A subgroup of five reactive bronchitis pa...
متن کاملShort reports Plasma terbutaline levels in asthma
Terbutaline is known to be an effective drug in the treatment of asthma which acts by P32 receptor stimulation in the lung.' If given in large doses this agent may produce side effects-such as tremor, headache, and tachycardia. Children seem to be fairly tolerant of such side effects and therefore may continue to obtain benefit at doses higher than currently recommended. The present study was u...
متن کاملInfluence of beta-adrenergic receptor function during terbutaline treatment on allergen sensitivity and bronchodilator response to terbutaline in asthmatic subjects.
Nine asthmatic patients with an allergy to birch or timothy underwent bronchial allergen provocations on three different trial days, with intervals of 2 to 5 wk. Two weeks prior to one of the provocations, no medication was allowed. Before the other two provocations the patients had been on continuous treatment with oral terbutaline (7.5-mg slow-release pill bid) for 2 wk, which was discontinue...

T reatments involving the manipulation of breathing are commonly used in routine practice by physiotherapists and other practitioners in a variety of clinical settings yet, despite decades of use, there is no robust evidence base to confirm the effectiveness of these activities. Practical and logistic difficulties exist in the design and execution of the randomised controlled clinical trials re...
